VIDEO: EAGLE snatches human toddler off ground in Montreal park! No kidding!

[Derrel]

Check this out!!! A golden eagle flew down out of the sky, and snatched a toddler literally OFF of the ground, and lifted the child into the air a ways, before letting go! The kid fell to the ground from maybe five or six feet in the air, I'd guess.

Convincing as it is...it isn't real. Sorry. I thought it was too and then I found that link.

I didn't know that's how to say "chit" in Swedish! Lol

 

[Derrel]

Doggone it...you spilled the beans!!!

To all of us with annoying toddler neighbor kids...and yipping, yapping little dogs...we were ever-so-hopeful...hopeful that a new super race of giant birds was sweeping North America, ready to help make the world a quieter, more peaceful place...

Wow!!:shock: that is incredible! Big bird! glad the kid is ok ha

edit:awww fake huh? well i fell for it.. lol

 

[Mr_Mac]

Sorry. If it helps, my daughters little dog (about 5 pounds) was buzzed by a hawk right there on our deck. The only reason he didn't get the dog was because he ran under the patio table!

Aw, c'mon, there's NO WAY that's faked!! I mean, that there is real LIVE Video of it actually happening--you can tell because it's got the slow-mo "instant replay," the frantic running-with-the-video-camera-pointed-at-the-ground angles...and then afterwards, there's that little kid, laying there on the ground crying and stuff, so CLEARLY he really WAS picked up by that eagle and dropped! Ya'll are such skeptics.

Had me fooled.

The fake video 'proof' linked to, sure doesn't seem to be conclusive.

Fake! Canadian design school admits eagle plucking baby from park was an 'animation' - NY Daily News

 

[Demers18]

Sure had me.


Although, I used to live in Massett, BC which is in the Queen Charlotte Islands and there was a lot of Bald eagles there. They warned you to keep a close eye on your small children, pets etc as they were known to swoop down and pick up lunch.

It looked real at fast speed, but at slow speed the shadows don't match up around the :46 mark. Very good CGI though.

You see all kinds of b.s. in design school. If they have so much time on their hands, why not create a "video" of a mass shooting?

And in case anyone is wondering; NO, I did NOT "get along" with my fellow students.
